I think it's telling that these SJW types rank "Income/Class" as way lower on the privilege totem pole than it should be. Gee I wonder why.....

Though you could say the exact same thing for working class straight white men.

ahahaha, oh wow

great job liberals, 10/10

This really isn't a "liberal" thing, TNF.

In the traditional sense, it's certainly not. Liberals used to be defenders of free speech and opponents of things like monitoring online discussion and cataloging people who make the wrong comment so that they can better 'analyze' that information without of course, divulging to the person in question that they're being monitored. That liberalism is dead though. The new liberalism is all about the state or its equivalents in the private sector being the ever present monitor of all, cataloging information at all times that could be used at any given moment if someone says the wrong words somewhere or does the wrong thing. That it does so for the purported purpose of anti-racism (without ever addressing the structural issues of capitalism that make racism a reality) makes it all the more dangerous, as it can entice well-meaning members of the liberal-left into supporting it.

Believe it or not, TNF, power dynamics do exist and people can be victimized for a number of things. We don't live in your oversimplified world where the only thing that matters is how much money you have and if you're rich you're "bad" and if you're poor you're "good."

Believe it or not, I'm not as dumb as you think I am, and I have never once suggested that power dynamics concerning race and gender, etc. do not exist. Maybe you should try reading my posts once in awhile? I know its difficult for you to understand what I'm getting at here. After all, we can't all be well paid dicks who work in an office like you.

It's certainly a leftist/progressive thing.

No, it's just a "dumb people being dumb" thing.

Ugh, the progressive left that dominates many universities today is disgustingly militant and powerful.

     I don't know about powerful; they are, for now, rightfully disregarded outside of universities. The possibility of this stuff filtering out into greater society is intensely disturbing, however.
